The turn to evidence-based interventions is significant for Psychology in
general and for Educational Psychology in particular. Although there is a
great deal of published evidence for program validation, there is currently
no protocol for the evaluation of educational psychology evidence-based
intervention programs and there is no General Register of such programs to
act as a central information depository. This article has four objectives: (1) To
assess the significance of the turn to Evidence-Based Programs in the context
of today’s Knowledge Society and Research and Development, Transfer and
Innovation (R&Di) activities; (2) To provide a Classification of Programs based
on the degree of specialization required for appropriate professional use in line
with the requirements of the Code of Ethics in Psychology; (3) To tentatively
propose a Protocol for the Registration of Evidence-Based Educational
Psychology Programs; and (4) Finally, to identify some implications of the
protocol. We conclude that there is a need for a General Register of validated
programs.
